Los Angeles Dodgers DFS SPIN
Mookie Betts went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, two steals and two runs scored versus the Guardians on Tuesday. It’s the first time Betts has stolen two bases in a game since Sept. 4, 2021. At 10-for-13 this year, he’s reached double figures in steals every season of his career, though he doesn’t run nearly as much as he used to; he stole 103 bases in four seasons from 2015-18 and he’s at 58 in five years since.
Cleveland Guardians DFS SPIN
Kole Calhoun hit a three-run homer as part of a five-run seventh as the Guardians topped the Dodgers 8-3 on Tuesday. The Guardians had two homers tonight, and both landed in pretty much the same spot down the right field line. Oscar Gonzalez’s solo homer in the fourth was projected at 346 feet, while Calhoun’s fly in the seventh came in at 350. Calhoun has hit .306 with two homers through 13 games with the Guardians. There’s little reason to think he’ll keep it up, but he’ll get plenty of playing time against righties until he begins to slump.

Dodgers vs. Guardians MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Give me the under. Over the last two weeks, the Dodgers own a wRC+ of just 92, while the Guardians are even worse at 78 over of that same span. While he’s only pitched 10 innings over the past month, Kershaw also owns a 1.80 ERA, while Curry owns a respectable 4.09 ERA over his last 22 innings (five starts). The number isn’t high at 8, but I still see this game falling under.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: DODGERS/GUARDIANS UNDER 8
